I'd be all for Swagger and Henry teaming on Raw regularly. I mean I keep thinking Mark Henry is going to retire soon and it seemed like WM32 in Texas was as good a time as any, but it didn't happen.
If Henry wants to keep trucking along, at least make use of him. |

I think people wouldn't groan if Mark Henry actually got used on Raw more often. Unlike the groans every time Big Show's music hits.

I think Henry has said this is going to be his last year with the company. Why not give him one last shot? I mean, I'm not the guy's biggest fan or anything, but for the past five years or so he's had a lot more good will. He was around in the Attitude era and has the kayfabe respect of being a former World Champion. It's not like he's completely without value when used selectively.
I wouldn't put the tag straps on Swagger & Henry, but they can wipe out The Prime Time Players and have a short program with them, which Swagger & Henry win because they're not completely shit. Then they're there to be bullies to Enzo & Cass. Swagger's there to feed for Cass. Henry is there to take a pin that actually means something. Even if that was all they did, it'd be more use than the WWE is getting out of them now. |

You can have Bob Backlund throw in the towel for Young & O'Neil in their televised tag match and join Swagger & Henry, proclaiming them to be true American patriots.

I think it would be cool if Henry's last match is a title match. Like, don't make it title vs career, because that would be too obvious, but build it up as it being Henry's last shot at being a champion.
Henry barely comes up short of winning, but if built up properly, it could be a great, emotional sendoff for henry, and give a big rub to whoevef beats him at the same time. |

At this point I don't think beating Henry gives anyone a big rub.

Nah, he's one of those guys who can be on main event for months, but then get built up as a monster in one show.
They've done it a coup,e times with him. |

I wouldn't give him anything too major. But I think him working with a guy like Enzo, smartening him up how to work with a larger man, etc. Yeah, that could be good.

Wrestling showerthought: if Rollins ever adopts a new finisher, it should be called the Shield Breaker, or maybe the Shield Destroyer.
Something that references that he destroyed the Shield. |

Cagesideseats website had a pretty interesting article regarding the WWE's Women's division and the Divas/Women's belt being sort of a curse for one's career.
Winning the belt basically puts your career at a 50% chance of lasting a year after the reign ends in the WWE. 30% chance of lasting after 2 years. Only Natty and Alicia Fox have managed to have decent careers without needing the belt in the WWE since their last reigns were 6 years ago. http://www.cagesideseats.com/2016/8/...the-disturbing |

If I was Vince I would tell Foley he doesn't need to turn the passion dial up to 11 in every promo.

I forgot to mention that I had a dream last night that Curtis Axel and Jack Swagger became a team called "The Perfect Americans".
They were a heel team who basically did everything that would make them the perfect Americans, such as reciting the Pledge of Allegiance before their matches for example. They would also talk down to the fans when in the USA and talk about how Americans need to be like them and how they (the American fans) aren't good Americans and so on. When in other countries, they would just go down the "America is better than your country" route. |

I would be down with "Dancin' Cody Rhodes" ONLY IF a) he teams with Tyrus-asaurus Funk, and b) he does the Alex Wright.
"Boppin' Brandi" not only conjures images of her dressing like Cherry (maybe sans roller skates, though... bobbi socks and poodle skirts though), but is something a number of us would love to do if the chance ever arose. |
